A LOVING SQUIRREL
Pathetic Illustration of the Intensity OF
Animal Affection.
Atlanta CONSTITUTIONAL

Atlanta Constitution.
Three years ago Mr. Jacob Gardner, of
Bull street, sold a lady large, black squir-
rel, which ,ha6 attracted considerable at
tention while at his store, on account of it's
unusual size and the beauty OF It's coat
The animal became the favorite pet of its
purchaseri and was often given the free.
dom of the house, and other liberties not
often enjoyed by it's kind when in
captivity were extended to it. Occasion
ally the chatterer left the premises but,
never failed to return when night ap-
preached. 1t was the object of almost
constant pe5ting and caressing, and nearly
always slept snuggled up in the arms Of
its mistress. A few days ago the owner
left the city for few days, leaving the
squirrel at home. The little animal soon
missed her, and ran from room to room,
all over the house and grounds in search
of her. giving unmistakable evidence of
grief. ALI efforts at consolation on the
part OF others were unavailing, and the
squirrel refused either to be comforted or
to partake Of food, from time to time Civ
ing vent to pitiful little cries indicative Of
grief.
After nearly week had elapsed and it
became evident that the httle sorrower's
death was a matter of only few days, the
owner was notified aud returned home.
Her arrival was greeted with evidences of
wild joy by the squirrel, which jumped into
her arms with all the signs of happiness
that its weakened condition would permit.
1t made every effort to partake Of the
tempting food placed before It, but was un.
able to swallow. and On the following day,
with its eyes turned almost pitifally into
those Of its mistress, it gasped out its life
while lying in her arms.

HOman'S Resources.

Women need TO cultivate their
own resources more. There are
some who early recognize the Diff
ference CT value between the per.
ishable and the imperisllable things
of this earth. Every valuable pos
session has its added care and ex-
pense. People who were once in
moderate circumstances, or poor.
even. who grow wealthy, look back
at the old life as one frecr from
cares, and happier, yet, if they
were to go back to their early and
simple style of living the world
would severely criticiSe tIcm.-
Every woman needs to keep up her
list of old friends, and to make
new. ones too; the family and chill
drcn cannot meetall the wants that
middle aged people must have for
friendship. Not any woman is SO
busy but that she can find time to
write an occasional letter. If the
friend to whom she owes a letter
would come to see her, she could
lay aside work and talk to her, and
urge her to stay longer. One can
stop on the street at the risk of
taking pneumonia in winter, to
talk to Il friend for half an bour,
and why cannot friends be civil
when they do not meet?
Pure air every day, which house
keepers need so much. would fresh.

Of work could be done that there is,
without the daily dragging sensa-
ton that one has who stays so
closely i'll doors. There are moth
ers and children who do not so out
for u week of snowy OF stormy
weather, and all grow irritable and
cross, because they lave failed to
provide themselves with proper

The FIRST for the Season.

A gang of laborers employed in stone
quarry on the new Pennsylvania Schuylkill
Valley Railroad near Shenendoab, un-
earthed den of oyer forty rattlesnakes in
stone pile Monday. When ununcoyered
the reptiles started up kissing noise and
began to run rapidly in all directions.
When the men attacked them with theil
picks and shovels the snakes showed fight.
and one of them wound itself about the leg
of an Italian and bit him. Twanty-eight
of the snakes were killed and the Italians
say that there were as many more that
escaped into the rocks. The man who
was bitten is under medical treatment and
thus far has suffered but little inconyeni
